An Introduction to Quadrilaterals
Learners explore different types of quadrilaterals. Students define the terminology used with quadrilaterals. They create particular quadrilaterals based on specific characteristics of the quadrilaterals using an online tool.

Understanding Reflections by Paper Folding
Students investigate reflections and rotations. In this geometry lesson plan, students perform hands on experiments as they study reflections in the axis and over a line. They investigate human factors and work physiology, relating it...

Geometry Jeopardy
Students identify the pattern in a problem. In this geometry lesson, students make predictions, collect and analyze data. They apply the idea of scales and measurements to the real world.
Curated OER
Translations, Reflections, and Rotations
High schoolers are introduced to the concepts of translation, reflection, and rotation. They practice translating, reflecting, and rotating two-dimensional objects on the coordinate plane. students use computers to learn about the three...

Shape Detectives
Students become "shape detectives" as they identify, name, create and describe common shapes within pictures and objects found within the learning environment. Suggestions include incorporating shapes into all learning areas and daily...

It's a 3-D World Out There!
Students construct polygons. They identify attributes of three-dimensional shapes. Students name common three-dimensional shapes. They draw three-dimensional shapes, and sort three-dimensional shapes. Students use K'NEX materials sets to...
Curated OER
Circles and Clocks, Shapes and Time
Students work in groups to research clocks and practice telling time. In this telling time lesson plan, students use the computer program ProQuest to study circles, including radius and diameter, and practice drawing circles using a...

Shape It
Fourth graders use math software and geoboard paper to design basic shapes. They write individual definitions for the geometric shapes based on what they see in the shapes. They apply their background knowledge of the shape as they write...
